Temperature determines the hotness or coldness. The surface temperature of Canopus is 7350 K. The surface temperature of Vega is 9602 K. Because the surface temperature of Vega is greater than Canopus, Vega is hotter.

Brightness is determined by the star's magnitude. The apparent magnitude of Canopus is (-0.72) and that of Vega is (0.03). we know that, lesser the magnitude, brighter is the star. Hence, Canopus is brighter.

Vega is hotter but Canopus is brighter. This is because, brightness depends on the star's distance and size of the star as well other than the factor temperature.

The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.

The question can be solved, using Newton's second law of motion.

Note: Momentum of the cannon = momentum of the cannonball.

<h3>Formula:</h3>
  • MV = mv................. Equation 1

<h3>Where:</h3>
  • M = mass of the cannon
  • m = mass of the cannonball
  • V = velocity of the cannon
  • v = velocity of the cannonball

Make v the subject of the equation.

  • v = MV/m................ Equation 2

From the question,

<h3>Given: </h3>
  • M = 500 kg
  • V = 3 m/s
  • m = 10 kg.

Substitute these values into equation 2.

  • v = (500×3)/10
  • v = 150 m/s.

 

Hence, The velocity of the cannonball is 150 m/s,  the right option is B. 150 m/s.
